Guided Van Or Bus Tours Of Maui Sights

Maui Tours with Sightseeing Van and Guide Where to Go, What to See, Which Tour Company to Use

Would you like to go on Maui tours with a knowledgeable friendly guide to drive you in a van, to see the sights of Maui?

Advantages of a van or bus tour include not having to find your own way around, being able to look at the sights instead of at the map or the traffic, and learning all about Maui from your experienced guide and driver.

Places you can go on guided Maui tours lasting half a day or all day include:

Hiking and secluded waterfalls — there is minor hiking and waterfalls on most Hana tours, but for more hiking and special waterfalls you will need to choose a private or custom tour

Guided van Maui tours from various companies differ in the size of the van, the number of passengers with whom you share your ride and guide, plain to luxurious accommodations, and price you will pay. For discount prices on some van tours see Guided van tours discounts and reservations.

To see only what you want to see for as long as you want to see each place, you can hire a private van for just you and your family, and choose your own personal itinerary for the day, such as from Unique Maui Tours.

See below for a discussion of some of the companies offering Maui tours with a van and guide, and the differences that will help you choose the right one for you. Or click for more things to do in Maui.

Guided Maui Tours – Details and differences to help you decideThe most important thing you need to know is that cheaper tours use bigger vans with more people on your tour. If you pay more, you usually get a smaller van with a smaller tour group, so you get more personalized service, and you spend less time waiting for a large group to get on and off the van and to return to the van at the end of each stop.

About Me

I am Jon and I love Maui. Writing about Maui has been my hobby for the past 30 years. This website is my effort to help you, whether a first-timer or repeat visitor, to have the best possible experience during your visit to Maui. The info here is based on my own research and experiences. I am not a travel agent and I don't sell anything, so my reports are unbiased. I have visited each of the hotels, condos, and sights, have eaten at all of the reviewed restaurants, and took almost all of the photos.
